What is the current status of the DTV visa in Thailand and is it going to be cancelled?

The DTV is a MONEY MAKER for them, I don’t think there’s any reason they’d cancel it. It hooks people into spending a lot of money for years to come, and a decent amount upfront. Also poaches money-solvent expats from other countries that wish they had them in their economy. Tax implications are another story but that can always change. But I don’t think they wanna beat people up who spend so much by staying.

It ferrets out some visa abusers also, giving a longterm option rather than spamming the tourist stamps. So instead of a hypothetical expat leaving 5 or 6 times for several days or months a year, they stay in Thailand and spend that money within the kingdom. It’s smart for them.

Very strict now !

Those who are spreading rumors about cancellations are the ones who were denied the DTV 😂

Its speculation, i am one of them speculating. But right now no change

Anything can change but don’t worry until it happens

Well, if they cancel your Visa, they're going to have to give you your money back

There are talks that all dtvs will be converted to permanent visa, valid until you die and you get a 100year stamp on each entry

Speculation and imagination! So don't stress about it. What tomorrow beholds is anyone's guess.

For now, the rules are that DTV is available.

Also, I'd say that it's already not that easy to get it with a lot of paperwork being involved and one typo and the application gets cancelled.

Ignore the salty people who want it cancelled. It's wishful thinking on their part.

A lot of people are lonely, so lonely they spend large parts of their days in groups like this, stirring up negative feelings so they can have a conversation with another person. Right now, you don’t need to know any more than that.

I hear this talk for 1.5 years already

Nothing has changed at this point
